Back to the River lyrics

I can recall my name

But I was not the same

I fear I'd gone astray

I've almost gone insane

Sometimes I still can hear

Echoes of silent fears

But on that winter's day

You swept them all away

These were the times

When I longed for the river and I

Closed my eyes and you laid

Your hands down on me

Not just a burning sin

A candle in the wind

It was so much more

I want to thank you for

These were the times

When I longed for the river and I

Closed my eyes and you laid

Your hands down on me

I can see you, still my friend

Still so deep inside of me

These were the times

When I longed for the river and I

Closed my eyes and you laid

Your hands down on me

You filled my void, you let me fly

You broke my chains, you showed me life

You set me up, you made me true

I was back at the river with you
